[Verso 1]

C 
  You live in letters sent with 
shaky hands and circumstances 
Em 
  I bet you never thought your 
life could turn so tragic 
C 
  A never ending summer in 
the sand is not vacation 


[Pré-Refrão]
 
Am                      C 
  I swear I saw my life flash 
                      Em 
before my eyes as the waves 
     D            Am 
came crashing down  I saw 
                    C 
reflections of your face 
                     Em 
up in the sky as the shots 
        D 
fired before you heard a sound 


[Refrão]
 
C 
  What's it feel like to be alone? 
Em 
  The one you love is across the ocean 
D 
  You'll never know if he's coming home 
C                                 Em 
  The firefight dear it isn't over 



[Verso 2]

C 
  You spend your nights drinking 
alone waiting for phone calls 
Em 
  I bet you never thought your 
life could seem so long 
C 
  I'd walk the ocean floor 
so I could bring you home 


[Pré-Refrão]
 
Am                      C 
  I swear I saw my life flash 
                      Em 
before my eyes as the waves 
     D            Am 
came crashing down  I saw 
                    C 
reflections of your face 
                     Em 
up in the sky as the shots 
        D 
fired before you heard a sound

[Ponte]
 
C 
  Sometimes life really isn't fair 
D 
  And maybe I wished you far 
             Em 
far from here But all I ever 
wanted was for you to care 
Em 
  All I ever wanted was 
to meet you there 
C 
Sometimes life really isn't fair
